BIBLE IN A YEAR: Mark 11-13

CONDITIONS FOR COMMUNION GOODIES

MEMORIZE: "Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles?" (1 Cor. 12:29)

READ: Exodus 12:29-32

One meal believers should not miss is the uncommon meal - the Holy Communion. From today's reading, we see some other benefits from the meal. When you take the Holy Communion, it can provoke a diversionary judgment on your enemies. That is, your enemies will be hit below the belt, and lose something very priceless to them, that they will be forced to let you go in order to nurse their predicament. Every unrelenting oppressor in your life will suffer a fatal blow that will cause the fellow to leave you for good in Jesus' Name.

The Yoruba's believe that if you eat a particular charm called 'awure', promotion will come to you. Good luck will follow you wherever you turn. If this is true, why is it that those who prepare it are as wretched as ever? Why does it not positively affect their fortune? True promotion comes from taking the Holy Communion. After the Israelites ate this meal, Pharaoh told them: "Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone, and bless me also" (Exodus 12:32). The incomparable meal is the source of unusual promotion. Slaves who remained slaves just the previous day had become so dramatically elevated that their former master began to beg them to bless him. There is somebody using this Devotional who after partaking of this meal, those who have been treating you like a servant will come and bow down to you. They will feel honored to become your servant.

The type and purpose of a meal will determine how it is eaten. In Exodus 12:3-11, the Lord gave specific instructions on how to take the Passover meal. This uncommon meal is so powerful and capable of several effects hence it must be eaten correctly. One of my highly educated sons once said I was making things too hard. He added that all over the world, people eat Holy Communion on Sunday morning. So I told him that was why they were dying and frequently sick. I further asked him to show me one scripture which says that this meal was eaten during the day- either with Jesus Christ or His disciples. Just as those who use charms have their taboos, so also does the Holy Communion. If you are embittered against your neighbor and you eat this meal, it will trigger a slow but progressive death. If you are living in lust or immorality, don't take this meal: or else it will slap rather than bless you. An old man was about to kick the bucket when he sent for his pastor to administer his last communion. More than ten years later, papa is still bouncing. Strength, life, vitality, wealth, protection, freedom, promotion, etc., could be yours if you eat this meal according to specification. Do you measure up to its requirements?
